Green Smoothie

Smoothies are hardly recipes at all, but getting the proportions right really helps in making the smoothie taste good. This Green Smoothie gets it’s green colour from a cup of fresh spinach. This smoothie looks good and is good for you!

Servings: 1

Difficulty: Easy

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 0 minutes | Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

1 cup almond milk

3 tablespoons Greek yogurt

1 cup frozen spinach

1 frozen banana (approximately 1 cup)

1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 scoop protein powder (optional, but I use Vanilla Vega)

Directions:

Add all the ingredients in the order specified above to a blender. Blend for 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds or until everything is smooth. Pour into a glass and drink straight away.

Enjoy!

Tip: Freeze the cleaned spinach leaves and banana overnight so that they are completely frozen. This will make your smoothie nice and cold without having to add any ice!
